INTRODUCTION 

Irrigation  touches  practically  every  field  of  California  agriculture 
and  as  a  result  a  very  considerable  literature  on  the  subject  has 
accumulated.  Unfortunately,  however,  this  literature  is  so  scattered 
through  the  publications  of  different  departments,  bureaus,  offices, 
and  divisions  of  various  government  and  state  agencies,  and  through 
the  publications  of  semi-public  associations  of  one  form  or  another, 
that  only  specialists  in  the  subject  are  at  all  familiar  with  what  has 
been  written  on  irrigation  in  California,  or  with  the  large  amount  of 
investigational  and  experimental  work  along  irrigation  lines  that  has 
been  prosecuted  in  California. 

The  purpose  of  this  circular  is  not  only  to  assist  the  irrigation 
specialist  who  desires  to  keep  fully  abreast  with  the  information  on 
his  subject  that  is  available  in  printed  form,  but  also  to  interest 
farmers,  students,  engineers,  lawyers,  and  the  general  public  in  a 
broader  knowledge  of  the  historical  background  of  the  development 
and  practice  of  irrigation  in  California. 

This  list  is  not  intended  to  be  a  complete  bibliography  of  the  sub- 
ject, being  confined  to  publications  issued  by  public  or  semi-public 
agencies  or  institutions.  Textbooks  are  are  not  included  because  of 
their  general  application,  although  it  might  be  added  that  in  Cali- 
fornia the  following  are  generally  accepted  as  standard,  viz. :  Hilgard, 
1 'Soils,"  containing  many  references  to  irrigation  in  California; 
Wickson,  ''California  Fruits  and  How  to  Grow  Them";  Fortier,  "Use 
of  Water  in  Irrigation ' ' ;  Etcheverry,  ' '  Irrigation  Practice  and  Engi- 
neering"; Harding,  "Operation  and  Maintenance  of  Irrigation  Sys- 
tems"; Chandler,  "Elements  of  Western  Water  Law";  and  Wiel, 
"Water  Rights  in  the  Western  States."  Standard  periodicals  con- 
taining frequent  references  to  the  subject  include  the  Pacific  Rural 
Press,  California  Cultivator,  Engineering  News-Record,  Journal  of 
Electricity  and  Western  Industry,  Agricultural  Engineering,  and  the 
Reclamation  Record. 

Publications  or  articles  listed  are  in  the  main  available  in  the 
library  of  the  University  of  California  at  Berkeley,  although  a  number 
of  other  libraries  were  searched  in  preparing  the  list,  as  well  as  Miss 
Ellen  A.  Hedrick's  "List  of  References  to  Publications  Relating  to 
Irrigation  and  Land  Drainage,"  published  in  1902  by  the  library  of 
the  United  States  Department  of  Agriculture. 

Acknowledgement  is  made  of  the  helpful  assistance  of  Miss  E.  M. 
Coulter,  Reference  Librarian  of  the  University  of  California  library.
